Senator Sirjaul Haq has appealed to the visiting Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman to withdraw the increased transport charges (if any) to facilitate the pilgrims, especially from Pakistan. He was addressing a workers convention at Jhang on Sunday.

While welcoming the honoured guest from the holy land on his visit to the country, Sirajul Haq said the Pakistan government was taking the plea that increase of about fifty thousand rupees in the Hajj expenses was due to the increase of transport charges made by Saudi government. He said if this was true, the Saudi government should review its decision and facilitate the pilgrims.
